Green River Spring Cleaning

Fishtop Access 2302 Green River Cove, Saluda, North Carolina

Join MountainTrue's Green Riverkeeper and Liquidlogic Co-founder Shane Benedict for the 9th Annual Green River Spring Cleaning! We'll meet at the Fishtop Access (2302 Green River Cove Rd, Saluda, NC 28773) at 10:00 AM on Saturday, April 13 where we will divide into teams then get on the river to pull out as much litter as possible before the summer paddling season. We need paddlers of all skill levels to tackle each section of the Green all the way from the Upper Green below the Tuxedo hydroelectric station, through the Narrows, down the Lower Green, and all the way to Lake Adger. Bring your boat, paddling gear, snacks/lunch, and water, and be prepared to get dirty and wet. After we're done, we'll head to The Gorge Zipline (166 Honey Bee Dr, Saluda, NC 28773) for an after party with awards.

Living with Bears in North Carolina

St. Paul's Mountain Vineyard Flat Rock Square, 2698 C Greenville Hwy, Flat Rock, NC

On Wednesday, April 24 at 5:30 PM Ashley Hobbs with NC Wildlife Resources Commission will present on “Being BearWise in North Carolina” at St. Pauls Mountain Vineyard located on Flat Rock Square. With springtime in full bloom, black bears have begun their annual awakening from winter hibernation. During this time, we tend to see bears move around heavily populated areas in search of food. This presentation will serve to educate the citizens of Western North Carolina on the natural history of black bears in our state and will provide tools to better co-exist with black bears in our day-to-day lives. We will cover how to become a “BearWise” community or business in North Carolina and provide an update regarding the second phase of NC State’s Urban/Suburban Bear Study. Refreshments will be served. The event is co-sponsored by MountainTrue, Ivester Jackson Blackstream Properties, and Movement Mortgage.
